Reading

Week one for reading we read 
The Tunnel by Anthony Browne.
It is a story about a brother and sister who argue all the time. Their mother sends them out to play together and they discover a tunnel. The brother crawls through the tunnel ignoring his sister’s protests, and ends up in a magical forest. When her brother does not return, Rose follows him into the tunnel and finds him turned to stone.
This shows all the connections in the book.
Everytime we read the book and looked at the pictures we found more interesting things-
  • stereotyping
  • how the pictures showed feelings
  • not knowing the children's names till the very end
  • brother and sister relationships
  • making decisions......
What can you see in the picture?
